Biomedical Engineering prepare students for careers in solving engineering problems in health care, biomedical research, bioinformatics, and biotechnology. Areas of current faculty research include biomaterials, nanobiotechnology, bioanalytical microsystems, patient-care devices, tissue engineering, flow cytometry, disease processes, clinical translation, bioinformatics and medical informatics, and molecular and cellular systems
Students must also complete the Biomedical Engineering core, selected emphasis core, and elective courses described below. Equivalent graduate-level courses taken at other institutions may be used to satisfy one or more of the Biomedical Engineering and emphasis core requirements, as approved by the student's Graduate Advisor or Curriculum Committee.
Students must pass the Qualifying Examination before applying for Candidacy or proceeding to the Doctoral Comprehensive Exam. Upon successfully passing the Doctoral Comprehensive Exam and successful review of their application by program faculty and the Dean of Graduate Studies, students are admitted to Candidacy for the doctoral degree. For successful completion of the program requirements, all candidates must pass a Final Examination (Defense of Dissertation).
